## Previews
### ReactJS
### JavaScript
### HTML
### Sass

## Installation
1. Open the **Extensions** sidebar panel in VS Code. `View → Extensions`
2. Search for `AlterNight`
3. Click `Install`
4. When prompted, select `AlterNight` as the color theme
> In case of not being prompted to select a Color Theme upon installing, go to the menu bar and select: `Code (File, on Windows) > Preferences > Color Theme > AlterNight`. Alternatively, you can use the shortcut `⌘/Ctrl + K > ⌘/Ctrl + T` and select `AlterNight`.
### Recommended settings for a better experience
The typeface shown in the screenshots is **MD IO** — a nice monospace font I really like. You can get it from [Future Fonts](https://www.futurefonts.xyz/mass-driver/io). I've also added some preferred typography-related settings, which you can get by adding the following to your `settings.json` file.
```json
// Controls the font family
"editor.fontFamily": "'MD IO 0.3', monospace",
// Controls the font size in pixels
"editor.fontSize": 18,
// Controls letter spacing in pixels
"editor.letterSpacing": -0.72,
// Controls the font weight
"editor.fontWeight": "400",
// Controls the line height. Use 0 to compute the line height from the font size
"editor.lineHeight": 34,
// Enables/Disables font ligatures
"editor.fontLigatures": true,
```
### Customize/Override theme colors
You can customize/override the AlterNight theme colors by adding the following theme-specific configuration to your settings file. For more advanced customization, refer to the corresponding [VS Code Docs](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/themes#_customizing-a-color-theme).
#### Example of basic customization

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
"[AlterNight]": {

}
},
```
#### Example of advanced customization
